As our standards are based on outcomes, there are lots of different ways in which you might meet them.
You could meet our requirements by choosing to take part in a scheme run by your professional body, your employer or any other organisation.
Most CPD schemes will give you the opportunity to meet our standards and offer a useful way of structuring and recording your CPD activities.
As we do not approve any CPD schemes, you still need to make sure that you are content that taking part in a scheme will allow you to meet our standards.
If you were audited, you would draw on the different activities that you had completed as part of the scheme to demonstrate how you have met our standards.
Our CPD standards are also complementary to CPD frameworks which are sometimes published by service providers or by professional bodies and which link learning and development to career development and progression.
